We are very happy to announce a new feature for Final Fantasy XI (and eventually Final Fantasy XIV) here at ZAM: the Happy Friday comic strip! Over the years, the forum community here at ZAM has established Friday as "joke day," a day on which to post fake PlayOnline announcements, interviews, and the like in an attempt to trick others into believing the content posted.

Taking from that weekly humor tradition, we will be accepting story ideas, illustrations, and scripts to establish a community contributed comic strip.

Worried about a lack of drawing ability, but still want to contribute? No problem! As you can see from our first strip, the illustrations are by Vlorsutes, while the story is by Pikko. You can write and draw your own and submit it, collaborate with a friend, or simply send us your joke and let us run with it. It's up to you!

We hope to eventually have several recurring contributors to Happy Friday in order to keep the content fresh and entertaining. All ideas submitted must be suitable for a PG-13 audience. If you're interested in drawing a strip, please contact us first to find out our submission guidelines!
